w00t!!!! It's totally something that you can download!!! Check it: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dhoiem/projects/popup/

I haven't gotten started yet because I'm a bit intimidated by this 100mb "matlab" thing, but it's interesting that you seem to feed it this bunch of pictures with predefined "3d-ness" and then maybe it learns how pictures map onto 3d stuff, and then it goes on and can do your pictures... or something? Anyway, I plan on fooling around a bit with it in the next few days and see if I can make anything cool with it.

I love how it works even with the painting of the ship! I wonder if you could use it to make virtual pop-up books out of your family photo album or something. I wonder if they are considering creating something like that either as a consumer software package, or perhaps as a small business.

In any case, really neat technology.

I don't see anything amazing really, it simples makes a pop up of the original image, you define a horizon and land and sky, then it bends it to make it 3D, like those folded picture books for kids.

So it's not really 3D.

It is 3d, you can clearly see volume in the objects. They are probably taking some of the straight lines in the picture and calculating perspective out of them. This fails completely for objects with no straight lines, like trees, hence the more obvious flaws in these pictures.

It's not very detailed, but that is to be expected, given that you are only feeding it one static picture, something even the human brain will find tricky.

It's not 3D, it's taking a still image, assigning a horizon to it, bending at the horizon, pulling the bottom info up and streched to make it look flat.

The complexity of the object would only be limited by assignment of values you have, the highest in this video was the train, they allocated foreground, background, horizon, and train. This thus gives you the impression of volume. Just like Duke Nukem 3D, it says 3D on the box but it's not, it was 2.5D because you aren't actually looking up and down in that game, what happens is that the image is strech prespective wise to give you the impression that you are looking up and down.

The image here demonstrates how the system breaks things down into ground/billboard/sky.

Don't think this would work so well for pr0n because it doesn't really handle curves

I tried installing this but it didn't find some DLL's properly in the matlab libs..despite setting the PATH.
